The racist “jokes” about Dumba, Subban and others were a nice touch.

Who's got the eye test on Erik Gustafsson?
- TheMussel

That's a nice 'find'.
I don't watch Calgary much, but compared to the $$ he's gonna get he should be worth the contract!

It's a good signing.. I don't really see it as an overpay. Big dude, that's only 27..
Too bad he is not a right shot defenseman..

- PatC80


not horrible, 4 years for a 27 year-old dman buys the best years he has left.

$2.5M would seem better to me. but a $1M overpay on a ufa seems pretty typical.

Reda: Any news on ?

LeBrun: Well, what I’m being told is that there was a new offer made by the St. Louis Blues early last week. It’s an offer that didn’t move the needle from the Pietrangelo camp’s perspective. So, told not a whole lot of progress since then. And it’s not just about money here. Structure and bonuses are an issue here. Where this stands right now is I think and his agents at Newport waiting for a new offer from the St. Louis Blues, which I suspect will come here over the next week or two.


Interesting. That is one thing the Leafs can definitely do is large signing bonuses.

True, and the Habs have the cap space. It sucks that it's a good deal.. I was really hoping that they gave him a Karl Alzner type deal...

Leafs could do like 90% of the salary in signing bonuses, like they did with Matthews..
Come on, Dubas... Go get Pietrangelo

Let me guess... JFJ/UG said; "If Dubas trades for Dumba, it's only because of his complexion"?

3.5M ain't that much for a proven, reliable guy like Edmundson.

Guy was playing 23min a game last playoffs for Carolina and didn't look out of place.

Also gives the Habs a pretty big defense with 4 guys all over 6"2 and over 200 pounds.

Really reminds me of how Chiarot was perceived a year ago and he turned out great.

so Karl alzner 2.0

Doz has some medical issues he is working through. He will be back, when he is back.

I was not here, I typically leave when UG shows. He will not reply to me, and he drives me crazy... So, I leave.

I too will try to be strong, more for self preservation than out of worry for the delicate sensibilities of other posters. (Although I do care deeply about all of you.)

Trying to discuss real issues with JFJ and Drexel is worse than a waste of time. Drexel is basically a random word generator land JFJ still gets pissed off at his mom when she doesn’t press his Confederate Army uniform properly for those big re-enactments.

I only log in during the day... I stopped logging in late because of him.... It got far too frustrating.
